I love this show,but I have one problem with the show.Barry
‘S “wife”Iris.SPOILERS AHEAD
She’s hypocritical,ignorant,annoying and irritating.And the whole “We are the Flash”line,Complete Garbage.Also,why is it that whenever she argues with her boyfriend she makes it their fault when she’s the one who started the argument.When Barry told her he loved her,she shut him down because she was already dating someone.So then Barry gets a different girlfriend,Linda.Then,one day Iris goes to talk to Linda and tells Barry he had feelings for someone else and that they shut him down,and made Linda get mad at Barry,and almost dump him.They got back together,and they go on a double date with Iris and Eddie(Iris’s Boyfriend) and Iris flirts with Barry in front of Linda,and gets jealous of Linda every time she’s sees him with Barry.She gets on my nerves so much.Also the scene where Barry has to stop a tidal wave from destroying the city and Iris then decides to tell Barry she loves him.Next thing you know Barry reverses time on accident so none of this ever happened.And because Barry knows how Iris feels, he tries to convince her to tell him.She tells him no again,and gets upset with him.Nad then the next day when Barry’s at work,Eddie comes in,and punches Barry across the face and tells Barry to stay away from Iris.Si basically she tells her boyfriend about her childhood friend confessing his feelings for her,what did she think was gonna happen when Eddie saw Barry?And then in Season 2,Caitlin gets kidnapped by Zoom and Barry loses his speed,and that’s when Iris reveals her feelings for Barry.Like come on!One of his friends had just been kidnapped and he lost powers so he can’t save them.So you think now is the time to tell him?Really?Season 3,Barry spends the whole season trying to save Iris from dying in the future,when,Wally is trying to learn how to use his speed,and Caitlin is struggling with becoming Killer Frost,and you’re not gonna help them with their problems at all,but you’re gonna worry about Iris.Season 4,Iris makes herself the leader of Team Flash.Which makes no sense whatsoever.Iris doesn’t even do anything.Caitlin’s a doctor,Cisco’s an engineer,Harry’s an intellectual,Joe’s a cop,Killer Frost,Barry and Ralph go out in the field and Cecile is a powerful telepath.What does Iris do?ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!She also gets mad at Barry for leaving her at the end of Season 3,to save the world.She goes “Then how could you leave me?!You left me,alone.”We’re supposed to be sorry for her,but honestly, I just said “Iris shut up!!He left to literally go save the world,even if it meant not marrying you, if he didn’t go, everyone on Earth would’ve died.And you’d rather have him stay with you,lonely for you two and everyone else to die?!Really?They also try to make her seem better then everyone else.
Examples
She mandates to figure out how to fix Barry’s malfunctioning suit,when,Caitlin,Cisco and Harry(all geniuses)couldn’t and literally told her that is cold kills Barry.
Or when she managed to beat Cicada in a fight,when all meta humans could barely put nip a fight with him.
Like I said,I love this show,but Iris just ruins it.
